Sunday, March 1, marked for a day of Western Baseball. From Feb. 29 through March 1, the Baseball team played against the Montana State University Billings Yellowjackets, a 4-game series. Saturday showed for a win-loss day, both the Wolves and Yellowjackets got a bite out of each other. 

The following day wasn’t much different; the first game going to the paws of the Wolves and the second and final game went to the stingers of the Yellowjackets. 

Each team showed great battles and entertained the spectators, with multiple runs and hits to bases. The Wolves were able to hold the Yellowjackets off in two of the games due to innings being shutout and runs being made. 

This weekend showed that the Wolves were able to hold their own and have the ability to have a strong season, but also gave them the insight they needed on what to work harder on and improve upon. 

Coming up, the Wolves head to Central Washington University in Ellensburg for two games on March 7 and 8. Their next home games are March 14 and 15 against Concordia University, with George Fox University coming to Monmouth on March 18.
